{"product_id":"823220","title":"Lucy Ward - Pretty Warnings [CD]","description":"Brand New From Reputable UK Company With 30 Years Experience In Retail, Please Note Not All Our New Items Are Shrink Wrapped.\u003cbr\u003eAll items shipped within 3 working days of payment.\u003cbr\u003ePlease note that all our DVDs are Region 2.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlease note that not all audio CDs are shrink-wrapped fom the factory.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePretty Warnings is the captivating fourth studio album from Lucy Ward. Rich with tradition and exquisitely penned original songs, this album weaves it\\u2019s way effortlessly through matters of love, darkness, longing and joy. It confirms what we already knew \\u2013 that Ward\\u2019s unique ability to inhabit the very heart of a song is bewitching, beguiling and beautiful.\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003eWard is a story teller at heart, concerned with expressing truth and the human condition. She can paint a picture with her words and this album is an expressive collection of true stories and evocative imagery.\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003eAs well as innovative arrangements of traditional songs such as the ballad Bill Norrie, Ward has delved into the tradition to come up with beautiful retellings of traditional forms. The Cruel Mother is re-spun in her song Mari Fach (meaning Sweet Mari), the true story of a young welsh woman pregnant, unmarried and afraid. The archetypal rover becomes Ward\\u2019s yearning Silver Morning, a taste of her inimitable nu-folk originality. She has also addressed the recurring theme of the night visitor with the insistent Cold Caller.\\r\u003cbr\u003e \\r\u003cbr\u003ePretty Warnings has a sublime quality; an enchanting warmth that runs through it. It feels as though Ward\\u2019s song writing has evolved with a richness born from her experience and time away from the studio; songs like Sunhine Child and The Sweetest Flowers being prime examples of her exquisite skill in their quiet and involving beauty.    \\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003eLucy Ward will be touring Pretty Warnings throughout 2018.
